The train covered the distance of 6000m in 4 minutes. Determine the speed

Initial data: S (distance traveled by the train) = 6000 m = 6 km; t (movement time) = 4 min = 240 s = 1/15 h.

1) Let’s calculate the speed of the train in kilometers per hour: V = S / t = 6 / (1/15) = 6 * 15 = 90 km / h.

2) Let’s calculate the speed of the train in meters per second: V = S / t = 6000/240 = 25 m / s.

Answer: The train speed is 90 km / h or 25 m / s.
